I told you I
could not resist the gorgeous new pattern called Meg's Garden...
well, it is still very much work in progress but it is taking
shape...

We have
added a new class to our list. It will take place on November
28th (2-5pm at the shop). If you would like to make this lovely
memory board, come and join us! It would make a really nice
Christmas present.
Just a
word of warning: they are a bit addictive... I have already made
2 and I have 5 more in the pipeline!! |

I am very
grateful to Jane Coombes for lending me her made up sample of
the Skillbuilder 1. It is a preprinted panel that allows you to
practise your free motion quilting.
There is a
second panel that concentrates on feather designs.
Panel
£9.75 each
A booklet
is also available (see book section further below), it is not
indispensable but it has some very good technical advice. |

nice and fresh colours and so comfy!!

What do you
get a quilter who has every single gadget there is to be and
whose stash would compete with her local shop? How about a nice
patchwork mug, complete with china coaster and pretty tin?
